Answer 1

For Question 1, the statement that does not correctly explain why there are pairs of chromosomes in the karyotype is:

C Gametes each contain a pair of chromosomes.

This is incorrect because gametes (sperm and egg cells) are haploid and contain only one chromosome from each pair, not a pair of chromosomes.

For Question 2, the statement that would not apply based on the information provided by a karyogram is:

B Your personality.

A karyogram can provide information about genetic traits related to physical characteristics and gender, but it cannot determine personality.
